Date: 2014-08-31 03:13 am (UTC)That's my main problem with bad writing, as well. I feel a bit bad about this sometimes, because I'll read any old rot with terrible morality, as long as the writing is good and the characters feel halfway real.
It's like when I was asked by someone who doesn't read much what my opinion was about that 50 Shades series (of which I'd read a bit of the original fanfic for free online) and whether they should buy it for someone as a fun sexy present. The message in that book is dodgy, but I'm of the opinion that no one book will sway an intelligent adult and turn them into a gibbering idiot. The writing, however... oh wow, it was so bad. That offends me much more than any crazy skewed morality, and it's what I gave my advice based on.
Life's too short to read bad writing.
